The student editor of a university’s philosophy journal has been fired for tweeting out “women don’t have penises.”

Angelos Sofocleous, assistant editor of the Durham University philosophy journal Critique, received news that his services would no longer be required three days after retweeting a Spectator story titled “Is it a crime to say women don’t have penises?”

He added the comment “RT if women don’t have penises.” The tweet was deemed “transphobic” by his peers.

According to the Daily Mail, Sofocleous also was dismissed from the college’s online magazine The Bubble where he was an editor, and was forced to resign from the Humanist Students, a free speech society.

Yes, yes, it is. It’s a thoughtcrime. Off to the re-education camp with you!

When God made boys
He used a lot of string
He had a bit left over, so,
He made a little thing.

When God made girls
He used a lot of lace
He did not have quite enough, so,
He made a little place.

Electing Trump didn’t change anything.

Thank God I live on a different planet.

Where I live Trump even calmed the winds of the hurricane Florence before it hit land.

Come over here, there are millions of people who are optimistic again. Join us.
